As for now I will have it in my collection. But I don't know what I'm gonna do with it in the future.

I never knew how big these things were until we went to pick it up. I'm 5' 10.5'', and this thing was pretty big in my opinion, yet they look so tiny up in the air.

Picture just 'cause.

2001-130s are big. I actually stood next to the one in my profile picture for comparison, and I was amazed at the quality of it. Hope you enjoy yours and I can't wait to see it run!

The siren runs! We ran it half powered (24Vs). But the rotator is not tested. We'll try to test the rotator soon.
Here's the link to the video of it running: https://www.facebook.com/christopher.ja ... 1799221098
I'm planning on doing the first full power test (but no rotation) this Wednesday at noon. We are setting it up. The test will be short.
EDIT: Unfortunately I did not test it on that day I said, sorry. We need to fix the control cabinets and get the right batteries first.

Disadvantage of Facebook... You must've blocked me, I can't view the video.
